I will make it larger. All Pascoe has to do

Col. J. II. Mclaughlin, the wrestler, has
been in Helena ten days trying in vain to
make match with some Of the talent in
that town. He has the championship belt
and is anxious to have some mighty man
Of muscle take it away from him. The
MINER would suggest that Butte take the
matter in hand and accommodate the gen.
tleman. We trust that the fact that he
stands six feet one in his stockings and
weighs 235 pounds will not strike terror
to the souls of all of our Butte giants.
Surely somebody can be found who will
meet him in Gr@co-Roman, collar and el-
bow or catch as catch can, either or all,
and wrest the championship belt from him.
Mclaughlin has been engaged in railroad
ing for some time, but is in fair training.
II anybody in Butte has the nerve to meet
We trust they will come for
ward without delay and accommodate
him, as he has no hope of Helena muscle
meeting him half way.

WRESTLING
ANACONDA, NJ. T., June "a, 'S7.
To the Editor OF The MINER:
notice that the Butte Mining Journal Of
the 18th inst. has the following among
other things in relation to the wrestling
match between Kinney and myself at Ana.
conda:
Schumacher is now in Butte and has de-
posted $50 forfeit with The MINER and
issued challenge for contest with Pascoe
for $500 side. The latter is at work in
the mountains and it is not known wheth-
er he will accept. He had previously ar
ranged q match with Schumaker and al
lowed him to withdraw his forfeit, and un
less there is a certainty that the man and
money will be on hand it will be foolish for
him to leave his work to prepare for the
contest.

to the department that the Indians did not
use these lands; that the stock industry
was suffering for lack OF Grazing facilities,
and that by leasing the land to cattle men
the Indians would have source of income
and could suffer no injury, while the stock
business would be greatly promoted. Some
few cattle were allowed on the reservation
last winter and Jared much better than
those that had to rustic on short-cropped
ranges.

SAN DWIcH ISLANDS.
King kaIakaua Says that lie Is Not
Afraid.
Will Not Sign Away His Peoples
Rights Under Duress.
He viii Place Himself Under British
Protection.

New YORK. July lathe Herald prints a
despatch from Honolulu, dated July D, via
San Francisco, detailing an interview its
correspondent had with King Kalakaua. Re-
garding the new constitution, the King said
that he would not be coerced into signing it.
He will not sign away hispeoples rights un-
der duress He will sign the document If so
advised by his privy council, but in that or
any event he will consider the forced consti-
tuition illegal. As to personal violence, Kali
akaua said he did not dread it, but such
thing was possible He told the correspon-
dent that he would appeal to the representa-
tives Of the foreign powers for protection,
and would ask them to guarantee his perso-
nal safety.
cial says: Adyices by letter from Honolulu,
which are ten hours later than those pub
lished, say the steamer Australia sailed at
2 o'clock on the afternoon of July 5th, and
at that time the streets were full of excited
people. The Rifles had just been called out,
and it was said that If the King did not agree
to sign the new constitution which has been
prepared, there would be bloodshed. Moth
ing was seen of the King during Friday and
Saturday. Workmen were engaged both
those days in placing large iron bolts and
bars on the palace gates.
Inside the palace, in the basement, were
3c3 natives, all well armed. and the three nd
tive volunteer companies were also prepared
to turn out at moments notice. AT noon,
Tuesday, July 9TH, the Honolulu Rifles were
ordered out in full uniform. The secret
league are also arming. Gibson and Haysel-
den were moved to the prison on the reef.
This is said to have been done because mes
sages were passing between Gibson and the
King. The general report is that the King
will refuse to sign the document, and will
defend himself in the palace until tomorrow,
July 9th, when three British and French
man-0f-war are expected at Honolulu. He
will then place himself under the protection
of the British flag. At 1.2o a. M, the streets
were full of people. and the whites feared
bloodshed would result.

Games today-Portland at Manchester

way the Lawrence American puts II.
II Is reported that Moolic, Manning and
Gardiner of the Hayerhills are soon TO be
sold by the management Of that club.
The Haverhills have released Butler and
the Lynns Henry and Visner
Umpire Lynch will probably be offered
position on the National League staff soon.
President Young has been seeking his adj

A meeting Of the New England League
will be held at the Franklin House in Law
renee tonight for the purpose OF preparing
schedule for the remainder of the season.
The LOwells scored their four runs In the
9Th inning at Lowell, Wednesday, as fol-
lows Duffey OF the LOwells took first on
tumble by Lufbery, and Higgins hit for a
single. Kennedy hit over right field fence
for two bases and Duffey scored. Tohiing
sent the ball over the fence again and Iiig-
gins and Kennedy scored. Sullivan and
Burns hit safe bringing Toffllng In. This all
occurred with no lone out, but Sullivan was
caught between bases and Lovely and Hart
nett both flied out to Andrus.
The general opinion In the league Is that
Indianapolis has got badly sold in the pur-
chase Of POlhemus from Haverhill. He Is
slow base runner and only a fair fielder,
while his batting average has been fatted by
good supply OF phenomenons Tor pitchers
who have been tried against the Hayerhllls.
King. Mcclure, Condor, Newton and numer-
Gus other experimental lpltchers have been
put In the box against them ana against no
other clubs. so there Is no reason why his
average shouldn't be high.

BOLD ROBBERY.
Committed on Special Car on the
Wabash Railroad. n

ST. LOUIS, July 14.-A bold robbery was
committed on the special car of General
Manager Charles M. Hayes of the Wabash
Railroad early Tuesday morning. On Mon
day night General Manager Hayes, General
Freight Agent Knight and Assistant Gen.
eral Passenger Agent Crane, left this city
for Chicago, in the messengers special car
The car was attached to the regular train
and in charge of porter. About an hour
before daylight and while the train was
speeding along near Stralla, Ill, Crane was
rudely awakened with rough shake, and
founda masked man standing beside his berth
with big revolver. which was pointed di-
rectly at the agents head. "Now then, pass
over your money, mighty quick" said the
robber, land don't make a noise or I'll shoot
the top of your head off,"
Crane passed over his money and in doing
so exposed his gold watch and chain. "Give
me that watch and chain," continued the
robber, and Crane passed over his watch and
chain. The robDer then looked saround the
car, and finding no one. started to leave. He
accidentally stumbled in the isle and aroused
the porter. He covered him with his revol-
yer and threatened to kin him, and the negro
became as docile as lamb. Crane arose and
pulled the bel, which seemed to be just what
the robber wanted, for before the train
stopped he jumped off with his booty and es-
capped

SENTENCING SHARP.
Four Years in State Prison and a
Fine Of $4,000 Imposed.

NEW YORK, July 14.-At an early hour
this morning people began TO gather at Lud-
low Street Jail to catch glimpse of Jacob
Sharp, the briber, ON his way to court to be
sentenced. All through the small hours of
the night Sharp tossed about in his bed and
could not sleep. About 9 o'clock he arose
and made his toilet Mrs. Sharp had to dress
him almost as she would child. Shortly
after Warden Keating sent in some milk
which Sharp hardly tasted He remained
sitting in his reclining chair with his wife
besidel him, tanning him until the hour
came at which he was to start for the Court
House. He was escorted from the Jail to
the carriage awaiting to convey him down
town by three deputy sherlffs. Mrs. Sharp
accompanied her husband and entered the
carriage with him. A deputy sheriff sat on
the box beside the driver. 1t was 11.3o
o'clock when the carriage drove away from
the Jail and just twenty minutes later itstop-
ped before the County Court House. The
party alighted and passed through the path
made for them by the police, through the
waiting crowd of curious spectators to the
sheriff's office, and thence to the court room.
Sharp was so weak that in going into the
Court House and up the stairs to the court
room it was necessary for the officers guard
ing him to support his tottering form
Judge Barrett arrived at the Court House at
almost the same moment as tiie prisoner.
Sharp took but little notice of any one, but
sank into a chair with an air of utter exhaus-
tion and sat silently With nvid face, bowed
head and clasped hands at the table before
the Bar. A moment after the court was
called to order. The prisoners counsel
made many points in favor of new trial, all
of which were ruled to be inadmissable by
Judge Barrett. District Attorney MARITIME
then stood up to move the Court to sentence
the prisoner. He stated he considered it his
duty to ask the Court to appoint physicians
to Hook into the prisoners condition of
health and read some certificates from Drs.
Allen MeC. Hamilton ard Janeway, to the
effect that the prisoners health was very
bad and that he was suffering from diabetes,
inflammation of the kidneys and organic
disease of the heart, which were of serious
import to man of seventy years. He then
read DR.. Hamilton's report on the condition
ofsSing Sing and arrangements for the care
OF the sick, which he said were of most
excellent character alllaround and the place
was most healthily situated, In view of
these facts, concluded Mr.. MARITIME, there
Is nothing left for me to do but to move for
the sentence of the prisoner"
Judge Barrett imposed sentence of four
years in State Prison and a fine of S5cco.
SECOND DESPATCH.
A stay was granted on affidavits by Sharp's
counsel that they needed more time to pre-
pare bill of exceptions and that Judge Bar
rett had said that he was too i'll to give his
attention to the matter of stay.
